Capcom updated SF III with Second Impact, adding things they weren't able to the first time and tweaking the roster. They also brought back old characters.

There was quite a bit that Capcom wanted to add to SF IV, but they ran out of time. Rather than patch the game, however, they went with what usually worked back in the day.
